High Roller Slot

Playing online games definitely has its benefits but sometimes you just have that yearning for the proper old style environment of an arcade. But then again, it’s raining out there and you just put your dressing gown and slippers on. And Game Of Thrones will be on in a minute.

Luckily, The Art of Games have foreseen your dilemma and High Roller is all about recreating that atmosphere and tactile experience of using a slot machine rather than… well, a machine.

Sure, you’ll still be tapping away on your laptop, but at least you’ll feel like you’re really in a casino or arcade, although you’ll have to do your own work to create the look and feel, like maybe not cleaning your living for a while and getting your friends and family to loiter around in a vaguely menacing manner while someone in another room plays S Club 7’s Greatest Hits. Ready? Let’s play.

Crank it up

So, High Roller is all about the experience of playing a machine and when you load the game up, that’s exactly what you see, although the downside of this is that it means there’s a fair bit of wasted space on the screen. That can be solved by clicking on either the paytable at the top or the reels in the middle, which zooms you in to get the information about the game or to play it. Of course, this makes it more easy to play, but also removes a bit of that feeling the design is meant to evoke.

When you play it on mobile, you automatically get the zoomed-in view, so again it’s not quite as effective at making you feel like you’re playing a machine. On desktop it’s also not entirely obvious how to switch back to the full view (just move the cursor to the left of the slot machine to get that option), while the lever is also just off screen, so while you can click it to play, it’s not a very tactile experience.

Best Casinos That Offer The Art of Games Games:

Keep Rollin’

The Art of Games like to name their games with a bit of a sense of humour (see also Haute Cuisine) so it’s no surprise that High Roller is a name that evokes something a bit more grand than the run of the mill slot machine you get presented with. But one thing their games are always is good fun and High Roller has plenty of that on offer, not least from the simple sensation of clicking on the lever and seeing it pull down and set the wheels a-spinning.

Speaking of wheels, there’s a racing theme to the machine with cars and chequered flags amidst the free spins and that familiar BAR symbol, which dates back to when slot machines offered gumball prizes to get around gambling laws in the United States, with BAR being an early logo of the Bell-Fruit Gum Company. Don’t say you didn’t learn anything from us! Here it’ll get you a variety of prizes depending on multipliers, but you’ll have to supply your own gum, sorry.

It’s easy to get into the action with a simple playtable explaining what’s on offer, and once you’ve started pulling that lever and get into the tactics of the game itself, even if you’re relatively new to online gaming or slot machines. It may not be as pulse-racing as driving a Formula 1 car or strolling through a Vegas casino with your entourage, but it’s free and fun and you can’t ask for much more than that now, can you?

Rollin’ along

High Roller’s name comes from both the sly sense of humour mentioned above and also the fact that cars have wheels that, you know, roll, but is this a sleek speed machine or an old jalopy?

The truth is that it’s somewhere in the middle, neither one of the most addictive slot machine games you’ll find out there nor a bit of a banger. If your style is more ‘Netflix and chill’ than Ocean’s Eleven, you’ll love cranking the lever from the comfort of your own living room and there’s plenty of variety to be found here.

Like all of The Art of Games’s offerings, you can come to High Roller as a complete novice and get stuck into it straight away with very little need for extensive knowledge of slot machines, making it a more safer environment to learn than in an actual casino, where you can feel somewhat self conscious and not at all like a high roller. But remember, just because there’s cars on here, you’re not being a high roller at all if you play this on your mobile while driving!
